I was actually pleasantly surprised by this book. It is so well written and easy to read I devoured it in one day. It's humorous and heartwarming and sprinkled with true "World Record" facts throughout the book.
"And so begins the enchanting, unforgettable tale of J. J. Smith, Keeper of the Records for The Book of Records, an ordinary man searching for the extraordinary. J.J. has clocked the world's longest continuous kiss; verified the lengthiest single unbroken apple peel; measured the farthest flight of a champagne cork; and tasted the world's largest menu item, whole-roasted Bedouin camel. But in all his adventures he has never witnessed great love until he comes upon a tiny windswept town in the heartland of America. Here J.J. discovers a world record attempt like no other: Piece by piece, a farmer is eating a Boeing 747 to prove his love for a woman."
